Late pregnancy is the most painful stage compared to the entire pregnancy. Although there is no obvious morning sickness reaction at this stage, it has been squeezed into the stomach due to the enlargement of the gestational belly, seriously affecting normal eating. Therefore, many pregnant women's food intake will decrease at this stage. What should they do if they eat less and get hungry in the late stage of pregnancy?
If you eat less during late pregnancy, you will definitely feel hungry, after all, at this stage the fetus needs a lot of nutrients. If pregnant women always feel hungry, they don't need to eat on time and at the same time as ordinary people. They can increase the frequency of eating appropriately. For example, if you usually eat three times a day, now this situation can be increased to four or five times a day, and you can arrange the frequency of eating according to your own eating habits.
If pregnant women find it inconvenient to take extra meals when going out, they can bring some small snacks in their bags. When they feel hungry, they can eat a small amount of snacks to replenish their energy in a timely manner and reduce the risk of hypoglycemia. For example, small biscuits, yogurt, beef jerky, small pastries, etc. can be prepared in the bag for easy addition at any time.
However, there are also some pregnant women who have normal food intake and are not affected by the pregnancy, but still feel hungry, so it should be considered that their physical condition has shown signs of illness. For example, pregnancy diabetes will lead to a large amount of food and still feel hungry. At this time, you should seek medical advice in a timely manner.
